White Out - NORTHEAST

[Phillydubs]

I just wanted to give my thoughts and wishes to those simply members here in the North East who are getting slammed with this White Beast right now...!!!

Hope you are all safe and so are your tanks!!

I am in the HVAC business and we are swamped today... Not fun...

Be well all!!!

Stay safe and warm all! All we got this far south is rain and a palm full of snow/ice mix.

Stay warm everyone.

Hi Phil, just curious, what type of jobs are you doing today?

I was hoping to have a blizzard party up here in NH. Fire-pit, axe-throwing, steak tips on the bbq, beer....

I LOVE snow, but we didn't get hit. Bummer.

Stay safe and warm everyone. This is my daughters first true snow storm. She is in Maryland.

I lost electric for about 7 hours. Tank popped right back when electric came back on. However, one of my larger pigeons isn't looking good. Not sure if the temp drop got him or lack of oxygen. All other inhabitants are great. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Did not have to put the generator on but had it ready. Got a mix of freezing rain, sleet and snow around 3 to 4. Virginia up got hammered. Good luck to all.

How low did the temp drop?

We are doing a lot of no heat or no hot water calls today for the poster who asked. My business services boilers burners hot water heaters etc. we don't close and always have men on the road. It is a delicate balance during this as we are getting slammed with snow. The drifts are unreal....

It's very inconvenient for those that lose power, heat, water etc during these situations, but we tend to take for granted the folks that are out travelling IN the mess to come and help us. ... keep safe.

I got lucky on this one & did not lose power, which we usually do when a blizzard lasts this long. I have over 900 gals of water so I have a 8,000 watt gen. if needed. Harry

Len - You are so right! People just expect you to be there, and yes, while that is our job, some people have zero patience and no respect for what we do... It can be difficult at times...

Harry - So glad to hear that you are not without power!

[seankelly]

I agree, I got over 2 feet, but thankfully kept power the whole time
